Means it was probably imported from Lotus. You can delete it.

It doesn't do anything.
Your formula is equivalent to: =d13/100 Lots of people came from Lotus where formulas started with + and they've combined it with excel's =. chris wrote: hi there, when you have a formula that runs like that =+D13/100 ,then what does that 'plus' sign stand for?

I think it's a "carry over" from Lotus 123 but in Excel it's redundant!
